You
are welcome,
For
compiling your code using cl.exe you need to provide more 'compiler and linker"
options on the command line like the include directories libraries and the
defines etc. A "cl -help" will provide you all possible
options.
For
further reading please refer to the "compile options" and "linker options" at
the following site.

Subject: RE: Linking Error.Anuj:Thank you SO much! :) that certainly solved the linking problem using the graphical user interface of MS visual studio, but would you know why isn't it compiling or linking from the command line? is there something that I must run first? and does it really make any difference whether I compile/link/run from graphical user interface or the command line?Thank you again for your help.

Subject: RE: Linking Error.David,Thanks for responding. "didn't work" is actually missing a word :), what i meant to say is "when that didn't work" in reference to the specified path.You're right, I can compile, its linking that is giving me an error."You have told the linker where the libraries are, but you didn't actually link them in."-So how can I actually link the library?Note: As I said before I'm using VC++ 6, therefore I'm compiling and linking using GUI not from the command line, would that be an issue?-In the INSTALL file, I couldn't find reference to creating an environment variable that points to the root directory of OpenSSL, and I'm sure that I've read about this in one of the sites. Could this be the cause of my problem?Your help is highly appreciated.Layla.

If you got to linking, then you must have compiled. Which means your
include settings are probably fine.

You are not linking to the OpenSSL libraries. You are including the header
files, which is why compiling is (I think) working. You have told the linker
where the libraries are, but you didn't actually link them in.
